Is this Trilobite real?

[dontom]

I purchased this Russian Trilobite and it arrived broken.  Is that what it should look like inside where the break is?  I just wanted to make sure it is real.  The seller gave me a partial refund and I'm going to attempt to glue it back together but I just wanted to make sure it's authentic.

It's real yes, but closer photos in better light would show how much has been restored. It's typical that the eye stalks break off during shipping. The genus and species is probably Asaphus kowalewskii. Russian ordovician. 

 

I hope this helps.
